Yosemite’s Park is the perfect place for backpacking. The mild weather, the breathtaking landscapes and the over 1000 mi/1609.3 km of trails available, makes it a backpacker’s oasis. The park offers guided tours, but if you like you can backpack on your own. Just make sure to purchase the permits that are required for backpacking.
If you choose the guided backpacking, you need to take care of the permits and backpacking equipment (even clothing). If you wish, Yosemite’s Park, organizes a three day backpacking trip from Young Lakes to Mt. Conness. It starts with a fairly level about 8 mi/12.8 km hike to Young Lakes, which is below Mt. Conness.
